I can understand about protecting players but you can go too far
He doesn't seem to want to learn ways, it seems his way or the highway. The problem with that is because is hasn't had a tried and tested method to say that what he does works. Any teams should have 11 captains on the pitch as no-one should like losing and rolling over the way we have at times this season. I do agree with you that he can't do everything but it's his blueprint and before Saturday's second half, how many on this forum would say it was working or was successful?
have you never heard the saying "Don't air your dirty laundry in public"?
He always seems keen to learn to me, he regularly uses german football as a template for what he is trying to do, he has called alex Ferguson for advice I beliebe before, Pressley is open to new ideas but he isn't gonna change things for the sake of it. No team I have ever seen has 11 LEADERS on the pitch. I don't think our players have rolled over and I would bet any money they don't like losing. Tbh I wouldn't ask anyone on is forum knowing the fickle nature of fans haha

So you are happy with his signings, his tactics, his interviews, his stubborness, his reluctance to accept when he is wrong? you're just bothered by the scouting system and them being comfortable. I think the owners should take the lion share of blame for our woes along with smaller shares for the other parties involved but surely what happens on the pitch is within Pressley's remit. If you say professional sportsmen do need motivating then why can Pressley not seem to be able to do it then because Saturday's second half was the first time we have seen that type of display and what we do know is that it took the two mentioned in the OP to help get that and what we do know with Cov is that they won't be here forever.
give him time i guess,another year or 2, see if he can mould the squad he wants
i like
nouble
obrien
johnson
jackson

mquoid-but loan makeweight maybe he was a risk worth taking? has scored a few i guess
swanson(not played loads though)
allsopp
coubilaly(in 4-4-2 we will see the player i think)
thats only this years signings off course.
hopefully with time SP will up his success rate on transfers.
Like people on here criticising Pressley for saying Finch had a good game on his debut. A debut brought about by injuries and forcing him to play him out of position. But some people still wanted to say no he was crap.
I am not saying it was you Nick. But players in their maiden season need some protecting
